Waves in Nonlinear Pre-Stressed Materials (CISM International Centre for Mechanical Sciences)

Papers in this book provide a state-of-the-art examination of waves in pre-stressed materials. You ll gain new perspectives via a multi-disciplinary approach that interweaves key topics. These topics include the mathematical modeling of incremental material response (elastic and inelastic), an analysis of the governing differential equations, and boundary-value problems. Detailed illustrations help you visualize key concepts and processes.
